Trying to find a ready to go image for a Raspberry Pi 5, either RetroPie or Batocera (or others I’m not aware of) for retro gaming. I know of Arcade Punks, but is there any other resource? Tried downloading a 128GB image from them and its taking forever due to no seeders. I did check megathread but wasn’t able to find anything so far.
It’s definitely worth it to curate your library. It makes it a lot better when you actually get to playing
I was mostly worried about coming across some junk roms that won’t play, etc. But that’s probably not so common.
Funnily enough, I actually had problems in the past with junk roms in all-in-ones. I’m sure there are good, currated all-in-one images out there but I found the flexibility of managing my own library to be worth it cause there are so many great sources of roms. For retro, my favourite is vimms lair. Check it out if interested
@Father_Redbeard @owen you can easily find pretty complete rom packs and then check it all with DAT files (a database of checksums)
Where do you like to find them? I looked at the Megathread, but couldn’t really find a retro-centric source.
@Father_Redbeard archive.org for the roms, and no-intro for the dat files
